Estimated Christmas / Holiday spending on hubby?

Just ordered mine...

gulp...it was expensive. Close to $400. Giving me chest pains but it was a whole set of stuff that he has been asking for for a while.

I went past my budget, too. I think that tends to happen when I start shopping so early in the season. I just keep buying things here and there, and when it's all over, I can't believe what I've spent!!

We are buying lots of stuff for the house this year and keep calling it our Christmas presents. Daybeding, daybed frame, artwork, windows and siding, a roof, fun, right? lol So this year we are going to buy a treadmill for Christmas and keep all other gifts for each other around $100....to much to buy for the house so we don't need a $$ Christmas.

)
